Automated converters have a certain tendency to become confused and
put files in unexpected places, etc. Usually this has less to do with
the source than the destination; in particular, RPM

If you mean cabal-install, then no, there's no integration on either
side.
That's what I thought. As a result of this, you may find

Suppose a distribution ships a package 'foo', but not a package 'bar' which

Why won't it? This, of course, depends on how the distribution ships
`foo' in regards to static/shared libraries
